Shreveport Symphony Orchestra
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Shreveport Symphony Orchestra is based in Shreveport, the seat of Caddo Parish and the largest city in north Louisiana. Founded in 1948, the symphony is the oldest continually performing professional orchestra in Louisiana. SSO presents more than two hundred concerts each season, the majority of which are free educational events.
Musician and composer Kermit Poling has been the concertmaster for twenty years.
Every major SSO concert is broadcast on Red River Radio, the regional public radio network operating at Louisiana State University in Shreveport. Kermit Poling hosts the program, which reaches nearly 50,000 listeners each week.
